Recently, we developed the correlation-aided reconstruction (CORAR) method to reconstruct solar wind inhomogeneous structures, or transients, using dual-view white-light images. This method is proved to be useful for studying the morphological and dynamical properties of transients like blobs and coronal mass ejection (CME), but the accuracy of the reconstruction may be affected by the separation angle between the two spacecrafts. Based on the dual-view CME events from the Heliospheric Imager CME Join Catalogue in the Heliospheric Cataloguing, Analysis and Techniques Service (HELCATS) project, we study the quality of the reconstruction of CME using the CORAR method under different STEREO stereoscopic angles. We find that when the separation angle of the spacecraft is around 150°, most CME events can be well reconstructed. If the collinear effect is considered, the optimal separation angle should locate between 120° and 150°. Compared with the direction of the CME given in the Heliospheric Imager Geometrical Catalogue from HELCATS, the parameters of the CME obtained by the CORAR method are reasonable. However, the CORAR-obtained directions deviate toward the meridian plane in longitude, and toward the equatorial plane in latitude. An empirical formula is proposed to correct these deviations. This study provides the basis for the configuration of the spacecraft of our recently proposed Solar Ring mission concept.
